About this map

Canaseraga Creek and its tributary Swain Creek define the drainage patterns of this rural Allegany County landscape. The village of Canaseraga serves as the primary hub, where local history is preserved at Saint Marys Cemetery and Canaseraga Cemetery. Small outlying hamlets and crossroads such as Swain, Garwoods, and Mastin Corners reflect the area's agricultural and small-town foundations. The terrain is marked by significant rises including Tildon Hill and Miller Hill, with deep cuts like Hovey Gully and Belle Hollow shaping the local road network.

Transportation through this part of New York is defined by a web of rural routes like Swain Hill Rd and Bailey Hill Rd that connect isolated settlements. Genealogists can trace family lines through several remote burial sites, including Swain Cemetery in the north and Bailey Hill Cemetery near North Almond in the southeast. The map captures a moment of modern rural continuity in places like Gas Spring and Grove, where the landscape remains dominated by open spaces and watercourses like Bennett Creek.
